What is acupuncture? • Acupuncture is a tried and tested system of medicine used for thousands of years in China and the East. • Treatment involves the insertion of ultra fine, sterile needles at chosen points to stimulate the body’s own healing mechanisms and restore the natural balance of internal energy.
